Book Finished

I have been working for DAYS...WEEKS.....many many hours a day on a book of my trip. I wanted to publish a coffee table type photo book as a memory of my dream trip. I finally finished and uploaded it to BLURB last Friday. It has 278 pages and includes 1,111 photos. I am so excited to see the finished product.....and my Fed Ex tracking number says that it is now in Port Orchard scheduled to be delivered tomorrow.

This picture is the cover. If you would like to see a sample....it only includes about the 1st 10 pages....go to this link. Click on "preview the book" and then click on "full screen" and you can get a little idea of my project.

Happy Birthday Elliott & Corbin

Yesterday was Elliott's 4th birthday. There was a big party which Papa Corbin (who also has a January birthday) shared with Elliott. Corbin turned 33. How can both of my boys be this old.....I find that totally amazing!!
Elliott opening his new Leap Pad system from Grandma Karen. I do love those Leap Frog learning toys!
Corbin opening his digeridoo which I bought for him in Australia. Everyone had to try playing it....there were some very interesting sounds.
Elliott was thrilled to have everyone singing Happy Birthday to him! He sat there smiling and enjoying his moment!
Elliott being Elliott...and 4!!

Norah and Simon also enjoyed the day......and were very good at giving big brother most of the attention.
